The conspiracy theorist in me says thats a low priority due to perverse incentives (namely selling more storage at a huge markup).

Another rationale is that the Apple ecosystems tends to not use JPEG by default anyway, right? It uses HEIC or something.

Yes but most of images are from Whatsapp messages. And they are JPEG.

Apple was always very frugal regarding memory and storage
